Great Value for Money

The Argosy was excellent value for money. It was clean, comfortable & very convenient to catch the Spirit of Tasmania ferry, early the next morning. The hotel / bistro were next door so very handy if you don't want to drive anywhere.

I wasn't given the room I had chosen and booked, well in advance purposely to avoid the chance of being given the same room I had last time with views of builders rubbish in long grass, an old shed and old fencing. It was quite a shock to see first thing in the morning!

We have now stayed here twice in the last 2 months and are also booked to stay again later this year. The Argosy is conveniently located to where we need to be and has great parking for large vehicles. It is also very budget friendly compared to other similar properties that would meet our needs. Have recommended to others and will be back
